Cooking Instructions

1

Prepare the Rice

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant but not browned.

2

Cook the Rice

Add the rice to the saucepan and stir to coat it with the garlic butter. Toast the rice for about 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.

3

Add the Broth

Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth and add salt. Bring the mixture to a boil.

4

Simmer the Rice

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed.

5

Final Touches

Remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit covered for another 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, season with black pepper to taste, and stir in the chopped parsley before serving.
